Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 732: Chapter 732: Don’t Celebrate Too Soon

”Mom, I am feeling much better now,” An Hao pressed on her stomach where it still hurt a bit. She suspected that she wasn’t pregnant at all, ”Mom, don’t be disappointed, but I feel like I might not be pregnant. It seems to be just an upset stomach.”

”Can it be?” Zhang Yun couldn’t bear the thought, ”Your symptoms really seemed like pregnancy. Besides, even if you took precautions, things can still happen unexpectedly, right?”

”Mom, you seem really hopeful for an ’accident’.” An Hao couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

”Of course. If it were up to me, you’d best take a break from school and spend a few months with Qin Jian at the military base, then come back if you’re pregnant.”

”Mom! I don’t not want to have kids. But I can’t just give up halfway, can I?” An Hao smiled and said, ”Don’t worry. I promise you, as soon as I graduate, before worrying about work, the first thing will be to have a baby.”

”You! If you are pregnant this time, just go ahead and have the baby. I’ll take care of it! You two go do whatever you need to do!” As Zhang Yun said this, an image of a house full of children came to her mind.

Seeing her mother-in-law getting more and more excited, An Hao’s mood was hard to describe.

After Zhang Yun indulged in imagining the future for a while, she realized it was getting late and decided to go downstairs.

An Hao grabbed her wrist firmly, saying very seriously, ”Mom! Promise me not to get too excited too soon. Let’s wait for the test results in a couple of days.”

Looking at her daughter-in-law’s serious expression, doubts started to surface in Zhang Yun’s mind.

She hoped that her daughter-in-law was really pregnant and not just getting her hopes up for nothing!

The hospital resumed work after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, but An Hao delayed her visit for ten more days, waiting until the fifteenth before she went.

Only then would the result be accurate.

Early on the fifteenth, Qin Jian accompanied An Hao to the hospital.

Ning Yibin and Zhang Yun both wanted to know what was going on, but Ning Yibin, being a man and the father-in-law, naturally felt embarrassed to bluntly say he wanted to join.

But Zhang Yun, as the mother-in-law, didn’t have so many concerns.

Indeed, she wanted to go! And she did!

On the fifteenth, there weren’t many people in the gynecology and obstetrics department, and they could get a number as soon as they arrived.

An Hao took a number and went into the department to see the doctor.

Hearing An Hao’s situation, the doctor shook his head and said, ”I don’t think you’re pregnant! Generally, morning sickness starts around the fortieth day of pregnancy, and this seems too early for you. Also, you said you stopped feeling sick recently?”

”Yes. Doctor, we would like to do a test just to be sure,” An Hao felt it was better to be safe.

”Okay.” The doctor quickly wrote a prescription for An Hao.

An Hao took the prescription and went to have her blood drawn for the test, and she would have to wait two hours for the results.

Qin Jian thought the wait was a bit long, so he suggested An Hao and Zhang Yun go back first, but neither of them was willing to leave.

So the three of them kept waiting in the hallway of the hospital.

It was cold in the hospital, and although An Hao was dressed warmly, she still shivered with cold hands and feet. She didn’t stop moving around.

Qin Jian held her hands, rubbing them continuously to warm them up.

Zhang Yun, sitting on the cold bench, watched her son and daughter-in-law’s affectionate interactions, feeling genuinely happy.

The wait was too long, and she started feeling cold too. Just as she stood up to warm up by stamping her feet, she heard someone calling her name, ”Is that Zhang Yun?”

Upon hearing the voice, Zhang Yun turned her head to see a woman in a white coat, not much different in age from herself, ”Are you... Doctor
